I'm looking to port a significant number of tests written in JUnit to test TypeScript code on Node.js. I know that annotations are an experimental feature in TypeScript/JavaScript, but ideally, it would use the same @Before, @Test, and @After source annotations that JUnit does.
Output in the same JUnit XML format would be plus as well.
I know that I might be kind of late with my answer, but you might want to checkout TestyTs
It supports annotations similar to JUnit:
@TestSuite()
export class MyTestSuite {
@BeforeEach()
beforeEach() {
// Do something
}
@Test()
onePlusOne() {
const result = 1 + 1;
expect.toBeEqual(result, 2);
}
@AfterEach()
afterEach() {
// Do something
}
}
Try it on REPL
but ideally, it would use the same @Before, @Test, and @After source annotations that JUnit does.
None of the popular js frameworks out there do that right now. Fwiw Mocha is the king of the test frameworks at the moment e.g. npm downloads http://www.npmtrends.com/mocha-vs-jasmine-vs-qunit-vs-jest-vs-ava
It is the test framework that is used by the TypeScript team : https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/blob/d1ac8dde0b2a9bc4929cc45a918e29dda651dafe/package.json#L69
Hence it is the framework that I support in alm as well : https://basarat.gitbooks.io/alm/content/features/testing.html
